Previous court ordered supervisor is no longer a supervisor, due to the harassment my stbx does to the supervisors, and is willing to help me see my child this week since I have not seen my child. My stbx is making it incredibly difficult. Can I ask my stbx to accommodate these visitation/supervisor arrangements and have the paper trail? Or do I need to contact my legal council to make these changes in visitation arrangements? My stbx feels he has full control over the court orders. My stbx changed my visitation hours as well on the days I am suppose to see my child. Hasn’t he broke court orders?
It would be best for your lawyer to attempt to arrange this unless he or she says otherwise. You and the father must follow the current court order assuming it has not yet expired. Neither of you can change the visitation days and times unless the court order allows for that. It won’t look good on the father in court if you have missed visitation time because he has unilaterally changed the times and/or did not make the child available on the day and time stated in the court order.
